During world war II, the Enigma Code it served for the Nazis to give important blows to the allies. All until a team of researchers in the United Kingdom, led by Alan Turing, could decipher it. Now, the headquarters of the center will serve to a summit on Artificial Intelligence.
The path of technology from the 40s to the present has an important appointment in Bletchley Park. In a press release, the UK government explained that the meeting aims to “discuss the development and safe use of cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence technology.”
Governments and entities from several countries are summoned to on November 1 and 2.
The rise of Artificial Intelligence has governments facing a new challenge. How to face it? How to support it? How far should technology development be limited?
All this will be defined at the summit in Bletchley Park.
will be considered “the risks of Artificial Intelligence, especially on the development frontier, and will discuss how they can be mitigated through internationally coordinated action.”
Rishi Sunak, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, noted: “To fully harness the extraordinary opportunities of Artificial Intelligence, we must seize and face the risks to ensure that it develops safely in the years to come.”
The United States and the European Union recently expressed their desire to a code of conduct for developers, which would be in force from 2023.
Also, experts like Sam Altman, Head of OpenAI, they have constantly called on governments to set limits on technology.
companies like DeepMind and Synthesia, to name a couple, they are located in the UK, which seeks to be the elite country in Europe for AI development.
Bletchley Park is a military building located in Buckinghamshire, England, in which Nazi codebreaking work in World War II.
Building, a huge victorian mansion, It was created in 1877.
with the scientist alan turing in front, the team of English researchers broke the Enigma Code, inventing a machine nicknamed “The Bomb”, which came to reveal up to 84 thousand German messages per month.
your work helped to shorten World War II, especially in the battles in the Atlantic.
The movie The Enigma Code (The Imitation Game), from 2014, directed by Morten Tyldum and starring Benedict Cumberbatch, tells the story of the investigators and how they managed to break the Nazi secret.
